  • TVBCJonpaul Jonpaul Heron (@TVBCJonpaul) reported from Newcastle upon Tyne, England

    Working fine all day, week and month. Now watching #ChampionsLeagueFinal2019 on @btsport on YouTube and it’s now poor. Very interesting.

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from South Hetton, England

    @bt_uk Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree Please fix my broadband just for me I've waited now for many days (17 and counting) Many promises fade in the haze Oh Christmas tree oh Christmas tree Please make my broadband work for me

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk Extremely dissatisfied. I've just moved, trying to get landline and broadband at my new house - promised for Monday 2nd, got landline on Friday 6th but still no broadband. Lots of excuses, might possibly be sorted on Thursday 12th. Very poor service.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk I moved house in the last year - previously I had sky DSL - copper only and enjoyed better service - this shouldn't be the case. I have another property with VM Docsis service - again a better service - but your core network was built on low cost - 21CN - poor product choices.

  • John_P_Turner John Turner (@John_P_Turner) reported from South Shields, England

    @bt_uk Queried business bills, however, billing team are unwilling to discuss/explain the issues raised. Service has now been suspended and billing team refusing to engage without payment being made. This is nothing short of blackmail! @MoneyTelegraph @TimesBusiness

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk No broadband (now 15 days late), no reasons given why not, no sense of urgency to actually get it sorted. I'm running out of superlatives to describe your dreadful customer service and general incompetence.

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk Dropping out, multiple times a day . It started on 1st Jan after 14 days of stability from previous fix.

  • timlibrarian Tim Fowler (@timlibrarian) reported from Bearpark, England

    @bt_uk Hi, no, it’s not a new build. Engineer visited before Christmas and was able to activate broadband but not phone service due to a fault in the junction box. Order number is VOL013-439847322595

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Chester-le-Street, England

    @bt_uk As I have tried to explain, an update on a possible new start date 10 days after the promised start date really isn't the level of service I expect from BT.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The automated 'check my line' service isn't finding the fault.

  • RiskManager01 John McLackland (@RiskManager01) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @CCriadoPerez @McAfee_Help @bt_uk Although I have never encountered any virus/mail ware problem for any Mac, you should be able to delete MacAfee files from the Library and Preference Folder.

  • liamlcg MrGrumpy.....Y.N.W.A (@liamlcg) reported from Murton, England

    @bt_uk ...... Your wifi is shit

  • Hossy93 Joseph Drane (@Hossy93) reported from Brandon, England

    @Gaz_House @btsport Or you could go down the night before. 😉

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    @bt_uk And people on Twitter may be looking for a new broadband connection and should be aware of the level of service from BT

  • breenster breenster & 🐶 (@breenster) reported from Wylam, England

    @bt_uk I have no idea, I just want someone to access the fault that was closed - and reassess, it’s recurred after 14 days of stability I’ve probably been moved back into your faulty network card or suchlike

  • calthomson10 Callum Thomson (@calthomson10) reported from Newburn, England

    @btsportfootball @btsport please never ever let John Hartson commentate on your channel again. Ever.

  • graeme_i_wilson Graeme Wilson (@graeme_i_wilson) reported from Walker Gate, England

    @bt_uk The light doesn't seem to change colour - yes the service is dropping out - I feel that there is either a degradation of pair quality or faulty termination equipment in the cabinet or exchange - there is definitely an issue.

  • foslar71 Peter Foster (@foslar71) reported from Consett, England

    Can someone from @btsport find that annoying kid in the @afcbournemouth stand and tell him to shit the f**k up.

  • CraigShitpeas Craig Shitpeas (@CraigShitpeas) reported from Sunderland Bridge, England

    Rochdale’s 40yr old forward more effective than #Nufc 40million pound one. He is awful. No heart, no touch, no industry just dreadful. Well done #rochdale a deserved payday. They should have won it. They still might! #facup #btsport

  • MrsP1001 MrsP (@MrsP1001) reported from Crook, England

    @bt_uk False alarm, it was a nice neighbour dropping off a Christmas card - I saw an Openreach van down the road and assumed that you had actually done something!!

  • Gamer90Happy Gamer90happy (@Gamer90Happy) reported

    @bt_uk DAMMMMMM that was possibly the easiest ever switch I've done & already had some top level customer service Man's in shock as been told if my router arrives early you can activate it early

  • MarciaR18022957 Rose-M (@MarciaR18022957) reported

    @BTCare I have just signed up. My local council have said there aireal is not compatible with your Q box. Can I have an old box of a refund and cancellation and no the sky Community can not help.

  • markrw1 Mark Whitmore (@markrw1) reported

    Hi @bt_uk I have a router to send back to you but no Customer Order Barcode on the box. Email said I'd receive one but nothing yet

  • lesleypart Lesley Partington (@lesleypart) reported

    @bt_uk Just wasted 2 hours on the phone to @bt-uk who continue to tell me they can’t contact anyone to solve our broadband and landline problems. They have told me they made appointments with engineers but that the system couldn’t actually handle this so the appointment was never made.

  • 86Whitey Whitey86 (@86Whitey) reported

    @SkyHelpTeam I’ve raised a complaint. It’s an @bt_uk Open reach process that @Ofcom need to hold them to account on. The engineer was never assigned “due to workload” so now as a “missed appointment” I go to the back of the queue - what a joke. Monopoly on the network, so do what they want.

  • peterarcheruk Peter “Skippy Lewis” Archer 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🎸 (@peterarcheruk) reported

    @bt_uk Where we live we can’t get a signal from an aerial, or a line of sight to the satellites so we are reliant upon what comes through the cable. Or did you mean retune what comes over broadband?

  • ratty_john John Rowland (@ratty_john) reported

    @bt_uk It has not been delayed. It is a series of failures by BT and your service provider #openreach I was promised a call back today that never came. By all accounts it was the 16th! That is not what I was told during my 90mins call on Saturday.

  • ElliottCJC_ |Elliott| (@ElliottCJC_) reported

    @England @bt_uk @Kalvinphillips Not bad for an AvErAgE player!

  • lesleypart Lesley Partington (@lesleypart) reported

    Absolutely unbelievable that we have been having fault after fault with @BT(@bt_uk) and they can’t send an engineer as they haven’t got the communications to contact them! They can’t say when they will be able to contact anyone either. Priceless. Atrocious service on every level.

  • jonathantullett Jonathan K. Tullett (@jonathantullett) reported

    @btbusinesscare No help needed. I just think we should be encouraging the use of apps other than @WhatsApp.
